It\u2019s quite something to feel like I\u2019m living the script of a movie and a psychological thriller at that. But this is where I find myself today with a build up that feels quite surreal to say the least.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Having formed a friendship a number of years ago where I opened my door and life: recommended our neighbourhood, school, mortgage advisor, homeopath even marriage counsellor and much more besides, all of which were accepted and incorporated. I have now found myself at the receiving end of their vitriol and harassment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I genuinely have no idea what turned their energy, though I had always seen that they were guarded, holding back. I saw this as a trauma response and accepted it as part of their being, though now I wonder about what has been churning in their soul all this time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And now I wait in daily angst for the next barb, the school WhatsApp belittling, the opportunity they take for slander: toxic, immoral, narcissistic, whatever judgement they wish to hurl that day. Even in my car I am unsafe from the intensity, when they decide to undertake and swerve in, two cars ahead causing hooting and braking from the cars behind.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The behaviour is deranged and irrational, no matter what I say, or don\u2019t, or even any attempt to appease, it\u2019s all taken as fuel for their obsessive inner fire. And how can I escape when are lives are so intertwined?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There is nothing I can do but engage as little as possible although even then I\u2019m accused of being rude. Legal recourse is on the horizon, but do I have to wait for injury or damage for that to happen? Will it happen? I honestly cannot say. I once would have been sure that that was never in their make up but now I hesitate. Where are they going with this, what is their purpose? And why me\u2026.<\/span><\/p>\n

*Single White Female is a 1992 psychological thriller\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
